I have acne ...tiny bumps on my full face.. since may years...I want to get red from it
Female | 30
Skin conditions that are common to individuals of all ages include acne. It is marked by small bumps on the face and other areas of the body. These bumps are due to blockage of the pores and excessive sebum production. To avoid acne it is necessary to visit a dermatologist who specializes in diseases of the skin. They can prescribe treatments, including creams that you apply directly on the skin or take oral medication as well as other procedures recommended by doctors to make acne go away and not reoccur.

Male | 26
You could be suffering from a condition called urticaria, which can also be identified as hives. Hives can be characterized as red, inflamed lines on the skin that are itchy and burning. Common triggers include anxiety, some foods, medications, or allergies. Try to determine what your hives may be caused by and stay away from those triggers. Using cool compresses, and antihistamines may be beneficial in reducing itching. If the symptoms continue, visit a dermatologist.

Anus haemorrhoids not bleeding only itching
Female | 30
Hemorrhoids cause itchiness. They're puffy veins close to the rectum. Along with itching, a pain or bulge may form there. Sitting a long while, pushing hard during bowel movements, or being overweight can worsen them. For itching relief, use soft wipes, take warm baths, don't scratch. Always keep that area tidy and arid.

Hi sir im pooja kumavt. Muje pimple bahot ho rahe hai ja nahi rahe
Female | 19
Pimples are tiny bumps on the skin from blocked pores, too much oil, germs, or hormone shifts. Blackheads and whiteheads often come too. To avoid pimples, wash your face regularly with gentle soap, and don't touch often. Use non-clogging lotions and makeup. If it doesn't improve, see a dermatologist.

I am 22 year old, I have fungal infection and ringwarm in our intimate area.
Male | 22
You might have a fungal infection in your private parts, known as the ringworm. The condition is characterized by itching, redness, and a ring-like rash occurring in warm moist places. It may get worse when one is sweating. Antifungal creams or powders can be used to treat it. Additionally, keep the affected area clean and dry for quick healing. Visit a dermatologist if the condition persists.

Isotretinoin treatment available
Male | 18
Isotretinoin helps treat deep cysts and scarring acne. This medicine works great but causes dry skin and mood swings. Only dermatologists can prescribe isotretinoin. Consult with your doctor for any further information.

Sir I have a fungal infection in my internal for six months i have used many things like tupe dermiquick 5, ketoconazole,itchaway ,niyomysin, but they don't work
Male | 17
You are probably fighting a fungus that just won’t go away. Fungi are caused by very tiny living things that like warm and wet spots. Symptoms can include itching, redness, and sometimes a rash. Since what you have tried so far has not worked, it is important to see a dermatologist. They might give you stronger drugs or recommend other treatments to help get rid of the infection.

hello i had a infected ingrown toenail removed yesterday afternoon and it’s bruising really bad from the numbing shots and is very sore is that a concern of a infection or
Female | 17
Swelling, pain, and discoloration in the toe are normal after the ingrowing toenail is removed because of the bruising. It may be from the shots that removed the sensation in the area. Don't worry; if it's been a day since the procedure, the formation of a bruise is common. Temperature, severe pain, redness of skin, or the presence of any pus are signs of infection. Follow the recommendations for keeping the region spotless, raising your foot, and taking painkillers. If you think you set out signs of infection, contact a dermatologist.

Hello, I’m 24 years old and would like to know if I have to be concerned using an aluminum based antiperspirant
Female | 24
It's natural to be anxious over the question of whether aluminum compounds used in antiperspirants are safe for your health. Some are jittery about the information they read which might suggest there is a health issue. However, the majority of studies confirm that there is no such evidence of the relationship between antiperspirants with aluminum and health risks. If you notice any itching, rash, or irritation, try switching to an aluminum-free option.

I'm a 21 year old male I have small white patches on the top of my penis along with some red dots and the urethra is inflamed as well as the foreskin and a slight burning sensation when peeing as well as frequent urination and a clear discharge
Male | 21
You might have a condition called balanitis. This issue occurs when the penis' foreskin becomes inflamed and red, and, in some cases, white patches can appear. The burning of the urine and the clear discharge may also be the result of this. Balanitis may occur due to hygiene issues, infections, or skin problems. Wash the area regularly and dry it, not use soaps that are too harsh, and prefer loose clothing. If the symptoms continue, a dermatologist can give medicine to make them go away.

What are the best treatments for vitiligo on chin area?

Chin vitiligo makes skin sections lose pigment. It happens when color-giving cells cease functioning. Doctors often advise colored creams, and light therapy repigmentation. Crucial is sun defense. Surgery is sometimes an option too. A dermatologist's guidance regarding treatment plans proves essential.

At night time am suffering from iching on my private part also there have some pimples on my forskin
Male | 24
You are dealing with itching and bumps on your private part, specifically on your foreskin, during the night time. It could be thrush, which is a yeast infection. Yeast infections may cause itchy and red pimples in the genital area. You can help ease the itching by keeping the area clean and dry, wearing breathable cotton undergarments, and not using strong soaps or body washes. A dermatologist must be consulted for proper diagnosis and treatment if the symptoms do not improve.

Premature white hair at the age of 21
Female | 21
Premature whitening of hair at 21 is not uncommon. Stress, genetics, or certain medical conditions can contribute to this. If you notice this change, try to reduce stress and follow a nutritious diet. Using protective hair products can also help. However, it's a good idea to consult a dermatologist to rule out any underlying health issues.

I am 19 years old male and have had red bumps on my body for the last week after having intercourse, and I know that my partner does not have an Std or anything that could have been transmitted.
Male | 17
You’ve got a pretty common condition- the name of which is folliculitis. That’s what happens when the hair follicles get infected and cause reddish bumps to show up on the skin. It can happen after engaging in activities like shaving or when there’s friction during intercourse. For this, keep the area clean, avoid tight clothing, and use warm compresses. If it does not get better, see a dermatologist for further advice.

Female | 26
Allergies that occur are redness, itchiness, and material on the skin. By the way, doing an antihistamine is the best way to deal with the situation. Stop using the gel at once. Use a mild cleanser to wash your face gently. Use an odorless, non-irritating moisturizer to keep the skin moist. Contact a dermatologist if the skin problems continue or get worse.

I am a 25 years old female. I suddenly work up and had herpes and this is the first time, I have never had it or known anyone that has. I haven't kissed anyone in 6 months or more. The last places I was at was work which was a rave last Thursday and on Sunday it was a bit calm. Is it possible I got it from the rave cause I can't understand how I have this rash on my lip and my lips are swollen. I am currently taking Aciclovir tablets and using the cream as well.
Female | 25
Herpes on the lips are called cold sores. They're caused by the herpes simplex virus. This virus spreads through close contact or shared objects like cups and straws. Getting it from the rave is unlikely since the virus doesn't live long outside the body. Taking Aciclovir tablets and using the cream is a great approach! These medications help make the outbreak less severe and shorter. Don't touch or pick at the sores to prevent spreading the virus more. Visit a dermatologist or general physician for further consultation.

I have diagnosed with pcos l have acne want to cure any medication
Female | 25
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can cause annoying acne breakouts. This hormonal condition disrupts your hormone balance, resulting in skin issues like pimples. However, certain medications may provide relief. A dermatologist could prescribe birth control pills or spironolactone to regulate hormones and clear your complexion. Consistently follow your doctor's treatment plan, and your skin should soon appear smoother.
